Hi mate, i've had a look and the single skinny pipe that is on top of the throttle body goes down underneath the left cylinders (1 and 3 I think) on the left nearest the turbo as you look at the engine. If you look inbetween the cyclinders, through the 'V' shape, if you know what I mean you should see a very thin dark coloured hard pipe (thin enough to fit inside your loose pipe) This is where the loose pipe fits over. It is buried away deep down but you can just about see it, hope you've got tiny skinny fingers! Paul

Reading back - throttle body goes to the fuel reg behind your power steering pump. Sod to get to...

Hope this helps

That pipe ends up going to your carbon canister(the black canister behind your drivers headlight), it's the fuel tank vent.
